Chapter 700 - Killing you (1/2)
Where is that vile mortal?
How the hell did he just vanish?
Curisa broke into a cold sweat as he hovered in the sky and scanned around for any signs of Xiao Luo, his body soaking in fear. He had launched himself in the air, ready to assault his opponent, but suddenly Xiao Luo was nowhere to be seen. Curisa had now exposed himself in the light, while his adversary hid in the darkness, ready to deal him a fatal blow.
“He’s above you!”
Ming’s piercing voice suddenly reached his ears.
Above me?
Curisa shivered and glanced up into the sky. And when he tossed his head back, he immediately saw two devilish red eyes, and he knew they belonged to Xiao Luo.
Two red beams shot from Xiao Luo’s eyes right onto Curisa, who didn’t even have the chance to react when Xiao Luo stretched his pale arm, and with fingers spread out, choked his throat like a steel clamp.
In the next second, a ferocious force surged through the hand, and Curisa could not resist it. Losing all control, he plummeted to the ground at tremendous speed.
BOOM!
Curisa slammed into the ground like a falling meteor and exploded on impact. The earth shook as a gigantic crater formed in the wetland park. Soil and dust rose in a swirling cloud, obscuring the view, and the ground continued to rumble.
Seeing the incredible scene unfold before their eyes, the police officers were all stunned. They felt a chill run from the top of his head to the bottom of their feet. Gripped in fear, they stood frozen in a stupor.
“Captain… Captain, have we been transported somehow to some strange fantasy world? Look at these guys—they are not ordinary people!”
“Oh, God. I’m terrified! They were floating in the air and slammed into the ground from such a height! Look at what they did to the park—the ground collapsed like a piece of paper! How could such a thing happen in this world?”
“Don’t say anymore, please, please… The more you say, the more frightened I am. I hope this is nothing more than a nightmare!”
The police officers were hiding in a corner and didn’t dare to show themselves. They couldn’t believe what they had witnessed, and their bodies were shaking in fear.
“R-report to HQ… Report to HQ, now! Hurry!” the senior police officer stammered anxiously.
“Captain, what are we going to report? Are we going to tell them two aliens are fighting and tearing up the wetland park? Will the authorities believe us?” a police officer said with a sheepish smile.
“So, what should we do? Just stand aside and watch?”
The senior police officer glared at him. “Whether or not HQ believes it, we still have to carry out our duty. Just report the situation to them now. It’s up to HQ if they want the military or the other national departments to handle it. It’s not our call.”
“Roger that.”
The police officer nodded stiffly and did as he was told.
…
…
Suddenly, a figure dashed out of the sandstorm toward the saber he dropped, now sticking in the ground. It was Curisa.
His entire body was soaked in blood and covered in a thick layer of dust. He was breathing with some difficulty, and his purple eyes stared cautiously at the rolling sand forming in front of him. Curisa was still in shock, for he never expected that Xiao Luo could beat him down from the sky and send him hurtling to the ground. It had taken every ounce of energy just for him to escape from the pit.
How did this happen?
What exactly happened with that mortal? How did his strength suddenly increase by so much?
Curisa’s eyes were filled with trepidation. He had never experienced such an embarrassing situation before, even in the Arcana Land. Imagine his surprise, when he found himself thrashed badly by a mortal who grew up in this filthy world. To add to his confusion, this mortal was someone he had effortlessly dealt with before. The sudden transformation was unbelievable, and he could not accept it for a moment.
